The DA documentation, including the EIS, is also available online on the NSW Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) website by following this link.

Neoen seeks Development Approval by mid-June 2016, which is considered achievable given the support demonstrated by the Griffith City Council, the Department of Primaries Industries (DPI) and the department of Premier and Cabinet, in line with the NSW Renewable Energy Action Plan.
